Simulated Annealing with Tsallis Weights - A Numerical Comparison

Condensed Matter 2015-06-25 v1 Chemical Physics

Abstract

We discuss the use of Tsallis generalized mechanics in simulated annealing algorithms. For a small peptide it is shown that older implementations are not more effective than regular simulated annealing in finding ground state configurations. We propose a new implementation which leads to an improvement over regular simulated annealing.
